The pilot was okay, but Silicon Valley really started moving for me in episode 2. Funny and compelling.

The fact that the Coens are involved is a huge deal for my perception of that show.

I'm legitimately very excited for it.

The Coens aren't involved. They get a producer credit for licensing their source material.

The Coens are involved. They wrote three episodes. Or is that not involved enough for you?

I read they weren't involved at all, besides being named producers, they wanted nothing to do with it. Obviously they were not against it being made into a tv show, but they didn't help.
Here's one source of that.

Here's further confirmation the Coen's were not involved at all.
IMDB, if that's the source of their involvement, is wrong.
